572. A team that makes people desperate
Downs became famous, in the first quarter against Whiteside, who is known as the best defensive big man in the young center, scored 17 points on 7-of-13 shooting, although 8 of them, that is, the first two three-pointers Whiteside did not defend and was shot by two in the open position, and the first time Downs hit Whiteside with his back did not care so much, and was turned over and jumped for one, but the other 9 points were scored by Downs in the face of Whiteside's defense. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And people usually only look at the results, Towns scored 17 points against Whiteside in the first quarter, and then scored 24 points against Gasol, Monroe, Biyombo, and Thackeray in the next round, and exploded with 41 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists on 15-of-28 shooting.
So Downs was on fire!
Although the Timberwolves lost to the Lakers 91-125, Towns showed his scoring talent and strength to amaze everyone!
You must know that Downs was very good in college, but he only averaged 10 points, 6 rebounds and 2 blocks per game, and he was known for his defense in college, and his becoming the champion show was actually quite controversial, Okafor selected by the Magic team was the biggest favorite at the beginning, and Downs was beaten up when he met Okafor in college, but Downs reached the NCAA Final Four in Kentucky, and won the regular season and the knockout games before losing the Final Four, that is, his college record was 38-1, So he later came out on top and became the champion show.
People thought that the Timberwolves chose a defensive big center, but who knew that Towns shocked the world with his scoring in his first game in the NBA.
That's why Whiteside actually didn't pay much attention to the new No. 1 pick after watching Downs and Summer League performances before the game, and then he was blown out in the first quarter.
Who would have thought that Downs would enter the NBA and suddenly become an offensive monster! Isn't this guy only defensive!
Whiteside saw his 89 points and 2K ability value in the preseason game, but Downs, who had just played an NBA, was updated on October 28, the second day after the Lakers and Timberwolves game ended, and Downs skyrocketed from 78 to 86, Whiteside thought that he only rose to 85 before he reached the finals last year, and it only rose to 89 this year, it took more than two years, and this Downs rose to 86 in just one game, what is the trouble!
So Whiteside took to Twitter to publicly express his dissatisfaction with the scoring criteria of 2K sports.
Whiteside is also very popular, instantly making headlines on popular and major sports websites.
2K Sports's maintenance team said that they were very aggrieved, this ability value was designed by the game development team, they just added the three-point shooting shown by Downs, mid-range shooting, back play, rebounding ability, 2K basketball games are originally offensive-oriented, and players with more scoring means have a high ability value, and the more versatile the easier it is to have a high score, and his slow rise in Whiteside is entirely due to the fact that he has too few scoring means.
Originally, people just thought that Towns was very talented, and they scored more than 40 points in the face of a team like the Lakers, and they ridiculed Whiteside for being beaten by Downs, and they didn't say that they thought Towns was better than Whiteside, just teasing, Whiteside is a big center at the best defensive player level, no matter how talented Downs is, he is just a rookie, and the Timberwolves are so bad, they were originally brushed data for him and Wiggins.
But after being so upset by Whiteside, fans have another topic to talk about.
"Hassan and Karl, the new CPs of the NBA? Seeing Hassan's look of dissatisfaction, no! He really wanted to go up and have a close encounter with Carl! But D'Antoni was unkind and didn't give Hassan a chance. ā
"Haha, I think Hassan is giving Carl a chance to make a name for himself with his life! See how Hassan defended Carl not? It's completely looking at the other party and saying you shoot, if you don't score, I'll grab a rebound and shoot for you......"
"NO, where do you say this to put our family Drummond? Drummond is Hassan's most perfect CP! No one can pass the ball to Hassan better than Drummond! ā

Green was dragged into the water while lying down......

The Lakers have always had a lot of news, even when they were at the bottom, and now that they are the defending champions, they are in the limelight, and of course there is something that will be in the spotlight.
Then Whiteside once again expressed his despair, and he didn't know what happened to make Downs another wave of popularity.
And Green is full of black lines, and Whiteside CP?
Green looked at himself, a black coarse, and then at Whiteside, an even bigger black coarse, and he was equally desperate.
This year, Whiteside is ranked third at center by all major sites, behind Anthony Davis in third place and Cousin in 11th, and Green is also ranked third in power forward, behind Griffin in 10th and Aldridge in 11th, and 13th overall.
Both of them are quite popular now, and Towns broke the Lakers' interior line, and instantly took advantage of the fame of the two to rise to become the latest hot center.
This year's most accepted player ranking, James is still the first, Liu Ren is very unhappy with this, but James's performance in the playoffs last year was too irritable, after his teammates fell one by one, he was stunned to reach the finals in the East, and he also won the Lakers in an upset, and he deserved to be ranked first.
Although Liu Ren did not win the championship MVP, he was still ranked second.
Anthony Davis is that favored in third place, but his stats and individual performances are also worthy of this ranking.
Curry moved on and finished fourth, while Paul was a laugh at the 183 masked man's meme, but still in the top five.
Durant was reimbursed too much last year, only ranked sixth, Westbrook ranked seventh, and Harden ranked eighth, and fans saw six, seven, or eight players who came out of the Thunder, and they were all regretting if these three had been on the same team......
Anthony was ninth, with Griffin and Aldridge in tenth and eleventh.
The media still gave Kobe Bryant face this year and continued to rank him twelfth, which can be regarded as giving the veteran a face for his outstanding performance last season.
Newly crowned champion MVP Draymond Green has skyrocketed 70 places, up from 83rd last season, to 13th, and Whiteside has skyrocketed dozens of places, from more than 70 last season to 20th.
In addition, the Lakers are ranked in the top 50 with Gasol at 22nd and Antetokounmpo at 35th, and new arrivals Monroe at 47th.
Also in the top 100 are McCollum at No. 71, Nick Young at No. 89, Korver at No. 90, Clarkson at No. 91 after his rookie year, and LaVine at No. 100 goalkeeper......
Regarding the ranking of Lakers players, even the Lakers themselves said that Sports Illustrated was a little frustrated, as if it could not explain the Lakers' horrific record of 74 wins last season without ranking everyone in the top 100.
12 of the 15 players on guaranteed contracts are ranked in the top 100 in the NBA......
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
After a day off against the Timberwolves, the Lakers faced their second opponent of the regular season, hosting the Sacramento Kings.
The Kings really don't have much to care about other than Cousins, and after losing the battle for Rondo with the Bucks, they have nothing to do but mess up.
The Kings were also depressed in the offseason, and the draft selected Stein, overlapping with Cousins, who previously liked to pick guards, but now suddenly they like to pick forwards.
The draft failed, the team's salary space is still very bad, a bunch of big contracts, and the spicy chicken contract can't be called it, but these players with good strength just can't be integrated together, their head coach George Karl wants to introduce Rondo, who wants the Bucks and Lakers to compete for Monroe After failing to compete for Monroe, he suddenly threw a two-year 40 million big contract at Rondo, crushing their King's 2-year 18 million contract to the limit.
So Liu Ren was very sad to play a soy sauce again, and then looked at Whiteside, who had accumulated anger in the last game, and now saw another "enemy" Cousins becoming more furious on the court with Cousins hard steel.
Cousins' strong strength, and the Lakers' interior line is also Whiteside's ability to go to hard steel.
Green seems to have "confirmed" the name of "Deha CP", and kept passing the ball to Whiteside when LaVine, Nick Young, and Korver opened up the space.
So the scene on the court changed to Cousins forcing a turnover jumper...... Whiteside catches the ball and hits a high shot, Cousins breaks through and makes a rebound layup...... Whiteside catches the ball and hits a high shot, and Cousins pulls out a three-pointer...... Whiteside catches the ball under the basket and hits it high and high......
It's such a tsundere, and Whiteside's scoring method is to use his height and reach advantage to play high.
Not to mention, Cousins' clumsy defensive ability is really good for Whiteside's offense!
Cousins scored 33 points on 12-of-26 shooting today, and Whiteside exploded with 43 points and 22 rebounds on 16-of-22 shooting in a rage.
In the end, the Lakers won the game easily 110-92 with Whiteside's 40+20 super performance.
The Lakers' performance made many teams despair, look at the Lakers Liu Ren only played 17 minutes and scored 14 points, Kobe Bryant only played 13 minutes and scored 6 points, just like that, the Lakers still wreaked havoc on the Kings with Guy and Cousins when the two main scorers didn't play much last season, and won so easily.
Liu Ren wanted to curse when he saw these comments after the game, did he really want to rest? This group of teammates completely lost the humility of last season, and they voted when they had the opportunity, which is not friendly at all, okay!
Then Whiteside, whose salary is still only 1.6 million this year, was slaughtered by his teammates again because of the brutal data.
Some are slaughtering electronic products, such as Liu Ren, this kind of okay, a few hundred dollars is less than a thousand dollars, and then there are Nick Young and Thackeray, the kind of guys who didn't show up with a girl for a night, are the guys who are in tears at Whiteside......
